But for those of us that find even {ba,z,k}sh unsatisfactory, I highly
recommend trying the Friendly Interactive SHell
<http://fishshell.org/>. It fixes many things like quoting, innovates
in configuration and has interactive syntax-higlighted
multiline-editing completing-on-steroids prompt.
I do have to warn that it is still evolving, not perfectly stable, and
has performance problems. So you might not want it as your login
shell yet, but it's definitely worth checking out.
See http://fishshell.org/wiki/moin.cgi/BashToFish for some highlights
and a quick start.
